Highway overtaking

Breakdown record

Strongly positivebased on 6 reviews

“if the car is from Tata, there can be no question about reliability... Tata has the least number of breakdowns”

City drivability

Generally positivebased on 16 reviews

“a 0-100 kph time of 9.4 seconds makes it a second slower but it is something you wouldn't really notice in day-to-day driving especially in the city both cars offer similar levels of off the line response”

Handling

Generally positivebased on 13 reviews

“handling manners are similar with neither of the SUVs offering much in terms of thrill and dynamism but for what it's worth the next one's consistent and weighty steering offers a bit more for the driving enthusiasts”

Braking

Generally positivebased on 5 reviews

“the brakes are also excellent now normally when you have regen braking the brake pedal feels spongy but not here there's a lot of bite plenty of confidence”

Electrical reliability

Strongly negativebased on 7 reviews

“our test car seemed to be plagued with multiple software glitches, most of these glitches disappeared on restarting the vehicle, however these electrical gremlins should have been sorted out to begin with”

Visibility and blind spots

Strongly negativebased on 5 reviews

“it does create a blank spot on the A-pillar. This has happened many times, scooters and other bikes suddenly come out of the street like this. I don't know when it comes right in front of me”

Rear seat space

Generally negativebased on 11 reviews

“the raised floor in the next One Max results in rear passengers sitting knees up and the shorter wheelbase means you won't be able to stretch as much as in the most spacious [MG] ZS EV”

Fit & finish

Mixed reviewsbased on 13 reviews

“where the ZS EV edges ahead is in terms of the overall quality, the switch gear and fit finish are slightly better in comparison to the [Nexon] and it does have an air of premiumness as well”

Dashboard layout

Mixed reviewsbased on 12 reviews

“the gear selection dial however isn't intuitive to use when it's in the Sun you can't really tell what mode you're in... that highlighted bit just doesn't show up in the sunshine so you have to look at the instrument [cluster]”
